These data are required to satisfy a long list of coherence diagrams, see [ 55 , Ap- pendix C] for details. Definition A.24. A symmetric monoidal 2-functor between two symmetric monoidal bicategories B and B 0 consists of a 2-functor H : B -→ B 0 of the underlying bicat- egories together with the following data: (a) Equivalence natural 2-transformations 3 χ : 0 ( H ( · ) × H ( · ) ) = ⇒ H ◦ ⊗ and ι : 1 0 = ⇒ H (1) , where here we consider 1 as a 2-functor from the bicategory with one object, one 1-morphism and one 2-morphism to B . (b) The three invertible modifications H ( a ) 0 ( H ( b ) 0 H ( c ) ) H ( a ) 0 H ( b c ) ( H ( a ) 0 H ( b ) ) 0 H ( c ) H ( a ( b c ) ) H ( a b ) 0 H ( c ) H ( ( a b ) c ) id 0 χ χ α 0 χ 0 id χ H ( α ) Ω (A.25) 3 We fix again adjoint inverses and the adjunction data. 152

Our definition of symmetric monoidal transformations differs slightly from [ 55 ]. The definition we give is tailored to the application in functorial field theories. In contrast to the definition given in [ 55 ], we require the appearing modifications to be invertible. However, the 2-morphisms corresponding to the underlying natural transformations are not invertible in our definition, so our definition is also weaker than the definition given in [ 55 ]. Definition A.27. A natural symmetric monoidal 2-transformation between sym- metric monoidal 2-functors H , K : B -→ B 0 consists of a natural 2-transformation θ : H = ⇒ K of the underlying 2-functors together with invertible modifications H ( a b ) H ( a ) 0 H ( b ) K ( a b ) K ( a ) 0 H ( b ) K ( a ) 0 K ( b ) θ χ H θ 0 id id 0 θ Π χ K (A.28) and 1 0 K (1) H (1) ι K ι H M θ (A.29) 153
